Paper Title
The Effects Of Experience Learning Model On Achievement And Science Lessons Design Ability Of Science Student Teachers
Abstract
The objectives of this research were to study and compare the science achievement and science lessons design ability of science student teachers before and after learning through the experience learning model. The sample used in this research were 4th year science student teachers utilizing 22 students who were studying in the second semester, the academic year 2015, UdonThani , Rajabhat University, Thailand, which were selected by cluster random sampling. The research instruments were the lesson plan of experience learning model of plant, the science achievement test, and science lessons design ability test. The research was carried out by the one group pretest-posttest design. The data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation, percentage and t-test for dependent. The results of this study were as follows: 1) The science student teachers who have been instruction with the experience learning model have science achievement pretest mean score 30.82 (51.36%) after learning their posttest mean score is 49.00 (81.67%) and 2) the science lessons design ability pretest mean score 13.36 (55.68%) after learning their posttest mean score is 21.32 (88.83%).The results show that each of the posttest mean score was higher than 80% and it was also higher that the pretest.
